Converse University makes getting the required course materials easy and stress-free! Our First Day Ready Program ensures that traditional undergraduate students have the right textbooks and required course materials* for their classes by the First Day at no additional cost.
We know that our students and their families make a significant investment in a Converse education. Research shows that schools that include textbooks and supplies within their tuition structures are seeing stronger student participation, retention and success – so this is just one way we honor our students’ and families’ commitments.
The First Day Ready Program ensures that our undergraduate students have the required materials and texts for their courses so they can focus on their studies instead of worrying about how they’re going to pay for books and materials.
This program:
- Allows students to focus on academic success rather than financial needs
- Promotes equity and inclusive excellence by leveling the playing field for students of all financial backgrounds
- Reduces stress on students and families by streamlining the often-complicated “bottom line” cost of education
- Aligns with Converse’s core values of belonging and collaboration
- Takes the guesswork out of the books, editions and supplies needed for class
- Ensures all students are “First Day Ready” when classes begin
*Please note: In limited cases, certain supplies and materials may not be covered, such as specialized art and music equipment and technology such as laptops, tablets, etc.
